President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has condemned growing protests in Turkey days after the arrest of a key opposition figure.
In a speech on Friday, Erdogan said his government would not "surrender" to "vandalism" or "street terror" ahead of more planned protests.
On Wednesday, police detained Istanbul’s mayor, Ekrem Imamoglu, one of more than 100 people held on charges of corruption and aiding terrorist groups.
Government critics have gathered in cities across Turkey in protest, defying bans on demonstrations.
